thx Charlie, that helps to reassure a little...just have to remind myself everyone has a different case, different story, different immigration officer...

because when i look back at a couple of u with VERY long wait times...its very discouraging....BUT i been on a roll ...so i wont let it bring me down!!!

I know when im going next, and then after that and so on an as needed basis, BUT FFS!!!


GIVE US OUR MEN!!!!!!! GIVE US OUR MEN!!!!!!!!!!!







Having said that I CAN UNDERSTAND LOOONG wait times with a valid reason, but I cant understand wait times, with no reason at all??

I'm with you Ananda,, 16 months is OK but frankly, I have this gut feeling that it will be much less.. I have been having this feeling lately that it will come and we wont be ready for it because our mind set has been set for the long haul.. I really feel that we wont be waiting much past new years if that long..

SO HERE'S TO LOOKING ON THE BRIGHT SIDE! ONE AND A HALF MONTHS DOWN, 5 MORE TO GO!

Oh and I sent the information off and KGN got it yesterday and signed for it.. So they have no excuses now not to update my file!

NOW MY WIFE AND I HAVE WORKED THINGS OUT AND OUR MARRIAGE IS A WHOLE LOT BETTER NOW. MY PAPERS HAS BEEN REFILED MARCH 2012. MY WIFE AND I ARE MORE IN LOVE NOW THAN EVER BEFORE AND NOW SHE CAN'T WAIT FOR ME TO COME TO CANADA.

i told my man he will probably be here by xmas ::)

well knowing he may not be.... i also told him when i got the AOR the papers would be in kingston in 10 days ::) ....without being so sure. ::)

..and for the first time he actually said to me yesterday, he feels it all becoming more real, whereas before the whole him actually getting here and living together seemed make believe lol and i cant say i blame him cause i felt same way....I mean YES love no make believe, but feels like were waiting on a lotto winning, or to make our claim.

We won the prize, now PLEASE let us claim it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GIVE US OUR MEN!!!! GIVE US OUR MEN!!!!!!!!!!

for my anniversary im considering singing Mariah Careys all i want for xmas is youuuuuuuuu, in front of the visa office, and taping it and mailing it in LOL

All marriages face challenges. Immigration is your next challenge, and one stage of it is just waiting out the papers. In the meanwhile, as you said, you guys are growing more in love and getting stronger as a couple. Just keep growing and enduring and you will find that the next set of challenges will be dealt with even better! :)

I AGREE. MY WIFE IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT PERSON THAN SHE WAS BEFORE. SHES A LO MORE LOVING AND CARING TO ME NOW. BACK IN THE DAYS EVERYTIME WE HAD AN ARGUMENT SHE WOULD THREATEN TO CANCEL THE PAPERS WHICH SHE EVENTUALLY DID. SHE ALSO CONFESSED THAT SHE WAS SEEING SOMEONE ELSE. I ALMOST DIED FROM A BROKEN HEART AND EXTREME DEPRESSION. IT TOOK A WHOLE LOT OF PRAYERS AND FORGIVENESS FOR US TO GET TO WHERE WE AT NOW.

Well after speaking with my peoples ;) here is the lowdown on my notes....

Medical passed!
Waiting on security, criminality and eligibility....
Dec. 22, 2011 - approved as sponsor
Jan 9, 2012 - file transferred to Kingston
jan 25 - Kingston received file
march 29 - pre review
apr 16 - moved to another IO's desk

A note was made on how we met and what proofs we sent in. No red flags were noted and so it seems we probably won't require an interview.

thats all for updates from then....

Interesting also, it was noted about an email I sent them in March, but nothing noted about my MP's inquiry in May. And nothing corresponding to the same date they added my husbands address to ecas....

so still waiting, but happier that there is no drama on my file lol...

Hubby will have to redo meds and PCC more than likely but that I can deal with ;)


TEDDY - I am sorry to hear of your misfortunes, but I am very glad for what you have accomplished in your marriage. It take a big heart and a strong soul to overcome such obstacles and hardships. Congratulations to you and your wife for overcoming these difficulties and learning to love eachother all over again :)

And a big thank you to those who have taken their time to help me understand this process, encourage me, and support me. I would not have had this information without you. I would be more lost in the process and who knows how I would be managing. I am also thankful for the friendships I have gained, you know who you all are, you mean a lot to me!
